    OK, so I'm entering a film contest about Racism and I'm stuck on ideas. Note: this is a serious issue, and the film will be only 1 minute long. It's around the idea of stepping up and stopping Racism.

    Thanks in advance!

    Have Mr T popping a cap in the ass of racists.

    Simple yet effective.

    Have a camera pov walking down the street, VO of someone saying racist comments as they pass people on the street. Then they stop in front of a store window... and their reflection revels that they are the same race as the people they were defaming.

    (Superimpose graphic)
    Racism

    VO: Stop hurting others...It could be you.

    You could try somesort of inference of the 1960s. Maybe showing a film where both black and white students heading to a civil rights march somewhere are murdered by the KKK. Demonstrate the extreme irony racism could create. It's a story which has been repeated many times and I believe its interesting.

    Good luck what ever you decide!

    No thanks. I just had a bout with racism recently and I was like, "Wow this story needs to be told!" No offense buddy, but I'm a filmmaker too and I need to tell this story.

    Do whatever you want, I was just hoping if people had ideas who couldn't express it. I totally agree with you, I'd do the same.
